Human Chains

Students from the Polytechnic University participated in forming human chains all over Hong Kong on Monday, in the current protest movement.  

This one started from the fountain at the main entrance to the university.  Up the podium to the quadrangle in front of the library. 

Pass the Democracy Wall. 

Over the foot bridge to the MTR Hung Hom station. 

Through a tunnel to the Hung Hom side of the MTR station. 

Over a longer foot bridge leading towards Hung Hom.

Looking bright in the darkness of the evening. 

Over another walkway leading to the Hung Hom residence hall. 

Like the many other human chains, it is an impressive sight.  There are so many young people, sweating in the hot, humid evening, chanting, singing, encouraging each other.  So determined and passionate.  So peaceful and organized.  Yet also so fluid and innovative.  

Stay away from the violence, and the future is yours.
